Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, this nursing home also received top notch inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our best scores in this area, with an A+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. This facility received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to resident health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.
